but at least your manufacturer has source codes provided..unlike ours we dont even know where to begin

12:11:39

Kyan31

is your phone huawei?

12:11:53

polariobearero

uhm no

12:12:04

Kyan31

oh

12:12:11

Kyan31

because there is a huawei g330d

12:12:21

polariobearero

its a device with many clones but without source codes

12:12:39

Kyan31

oh right

12:12:55

polariobearero

yeah there is although my device seems the same as the g330d i think they have a lot of diff

12:13:25

Kyan31

yeah it sure sounds that way

12:13:37

Kyan31

the y300 seems to fit better with yours

12:13:49

polariobearero

but i dont know how would i port y300 rom to my device

12:14:44

Kyan31

me neither

12:14:57

polariobearero

i mean how to make it compatible

12:15:01

polariobearero

i think they have diff partition

12:15:44

Kyan31

maybe

12:16:20

polariobearero

but what im working on right now is how would i compile a kernel or at least make it boot on my device

12:16:33

Kyan31

honestly i have no idea

12:16:54

polariobearero

i mean a have this boot image but everytime i unpack it and then repack it it wont even boot

12:17:14

Kyan31

you know there are kitkat roms based on the 3.0.8 kernel

12:17:21

Kyan31

ah right

12:17:29

polariobearero

well thank you very much for at least listening to me

12:18:03

Kyan31

no problem

12:18:38

polariobearero

actually we i think we already have cm aand even jb but it doesnt work properly..they always see that the problem is the kernel

12:19:13

Kyan31

oh right

12:20:31

Kyan31

thats a bummer

12:20:41

Kyan31

but as i said before, there are kitkat roms on other devices that are tailored to work with the stock kernel

12:21:11

polariobearero

i think i know what to be done but what i dont know is how to do it

12:21:16

Kyan31

yeah

12:21:42

Dazzozo

hi

12:21:45

Dazzozo

driving lesson etc

12:21:50

Kyan31

hey

12:21:51

polariobearero

hello

12:21:58

polariobearero

but do you think it would work fast?

12:23:07

Kyan31

probably no faster than what you alreasy have

12:23:35

Kyan31

already*

12:23:41

Kyan31

it would be about the same

12:23:46

Kyan31

but the new features are nice

12:23:56

Kyan31

so kinda a win situation

12:24:04

polariobearero

yeah ..the main reason i want to upgrade my device is to make it at least a little more faster than i have know see i dont care much about the looks..its just so annoying jut using a browser takes ages just to open

12:25:18

Kyan31

how much ram did you say you had?

12:25:57

polariobearero

512

12:26:06

polariobearero

but i think its 340

12:26:18

Kyan31

ergh

12:26:19

Kyan31

to be honest, theres no hope unless you could get gingerbread working or something

12:26:48

polariobearero

and almost half is being use just to run the device

12:26:50

Kyan31

same here

12:27:11

polariobearero

yeah . .they say kitkat is same as gb

12:27:13

Kyan31

no thats not true at all

12:27:24

polariobearero

yeah. .how

12:27:35

Kyan31

kitkat on the g300 only leaves 100mb free

12:27:43

Kyan31

and we are lucky to have that

12:27:52

polariobearero

oh so its pretty much the same

12:28:16

Kyan31

its because the g300 kk version has many things disabled, transparent statusbar and lock widgets etc.

12:28:16

Kyan31

yeah

12:28:21

Kyan31

gb however has plenty available

12:28:34

Kyan31

like, 270mb free

12:28:45

Kyan31

cm7 is just great but the only reason i cant use it is no usb tethering

i always get error here arch/arm/mach-msm/rpc_server_handset.c:111:12: warning: 'get_current_machine' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]

15:18:46

polariobearero

error, forbidden warning: rpc_server_handset.c:111

15:18:49

polariobearero

make[1]: *** [arch/arm/mach-msm/rpc_server_handset.o] Error 1

15:18:49

polariobearero

make: *** [arch/arm/mach-msm] Error 2

15:18:49

Dazzozo

then fix it ;D

15:20:47

rymate1234

^

15:21:04

polariobearero

hehe i dont know what it means?

15:22:00

rymate1234

neither do I

15:22:24

polariobearero

hmmm

15:24:45

polariobearero

ok ill just delete it

15:29:26

polariobearero

do you think its a typo?

15:31:41

Dazzozo

no

15:37:37

Dazzozo

its because you're building a huawei kernel for a non-huawei device

15:38:50

Dazzozo

expect this shit

15:38:54

Dazzozo

youre doing something very very dumb

15:39:02

Dazzozo

and not making it not-dumb

15:39:08

Dazzozo

huawei isn't going to test their kernel for configurations that they simply arent using

15:39:29

Dazzozo

You don't have CONFIG_HUAWEI_FEATURE_OEMINFO defined, and get_current_machine's definition is not wrapped in a CONFIG_HUAWEI_FEATURE_OEMINFO ifdef

15:39:53

Dazzozo

so quite literally it is defined but not used

15:39:59

Dazzozo

this kernel just doesn't build properly without the huawei configs enabled

15:40:45

Dazzozo

its not meant to

15:40:50

polariobearero

so i need to remove it in make file?

15:40:59

Dazzozo

no...

15:41:04

Dazzozo

if thats the way you're going to approach every issue its never going to boot

15:41:23

Dazzozo

you need to fix the actual issue or stop doing this very very dumb exercise

15:41:39

Dazzozo

why the fuck are you trying to build our kernel in the first place

15:42:31

Dazzozo

shouldnt that trigger alarm bells in your own head

15:42:39

polariobearero

ok i understand that this source is not for my configuration.. and you said earlier i should start on caf , since i dont have a kernel source i use your kernel cause im thinking maybe because it has the same chipset you know

15:44:07

Dazzozo

top tip: "same chipset" is not even a quarter of the battle

15:44:35

rhen

polariobearero, what device do you use?

15:44:42

Dazzozo

we may as well be on a different planet to you right now

15:44:51

Dazzozo

rhen: its some no brand clone

15:45:08

Dazzozo

with no kernel source

15:45:14

rymate1234

polariobearero: you might as well sell it on ebay and invest in a moto g

i want to upgrade my kernel so that i can run latest android. .but i now yu say i can run latest android even with my own kernel..but im thinking would that work?and if it is i dont think there is much a diff. .

they just relabel OEM phones, do you have more details about the device?

16:09:12

polariobearero

yeah maybe cause you know im searching about this upgrading and all the clones thers is none successful build. .then i came stumble on this y300 and it has kk even the russian and german forum your name is popping up

16:09:48

polariobearero

like what details?

16:10:38

adfad666

oem model numbers, oem manufacturer etc etc.

16:11:03

polariobearero

how would i get that?dont know where to find that?

16:11:29

adfad666

somewhere on the device, perhaps in the build.prop

16:11:44

polariobearero

no cant find anything on the build prop its been edited many many times by different devs

16:12:44

rymate1234

get the one from your device then

16:12:56

polariobearero

and im not even using the stock rom

16:12:57

adfad666

then you're on your own, i'm done

16:13:04

rymate1234

polariobearero: you = screwed

16:13:23

adfad666

seriously, you gotta come up with at least some basic info

16:14:08

Dazzozo

lol wtf

16:14:29

Dazzozo

you guys have non-stock roms?

16:14:32

Dazzozo

then it cant be too hard

16:14:36

polariobearero

the story is that the company that selling this device wasnt even the manufacturer but their has all over it i mean they edit a lot of things and i doubt they even have the source

16:14:39

adfad666

more than "phone, hurr durr, fix durr hurr"

16:14:55

Dazzozo

apparently you dont know how phones are sold

16:15:00

polariobearero

yeah im screwed im thinking to throw this out the window

16:15:12

Dazzozo

we had the same shit with the crescent

16:15:15

rymate1234

please do

16:15:19

rymate1234

Dazzozo: with it's 59 different varieties?

16:15:42

adfad666

throw it at the wall, hopefully it'll bounce back and knock some sense into you

16:15:49

Dazzozo

yes

16:15:51

Dazzozo

and we still figured out it was a fucking zte crescent

16:15:59

Dazzozo

despite being badged as osf2

16:16:06

rymate1234

or a vivacity

16:16:14

rymate1234

or a blade2

16:16:16

Dazzozo

ye

16:16:16

polariobearero

so how would i know the original source?shed some light

16:16:57

Kyan31

polario your drunk

16:17:04

Kyan31

i think you are on a modded stock rom

16:17:04

Kyan31

so, you are on stock basically

16:17:09

rymate1234

the original build.prop

16:17:15

Dazzozo

^

16:17:19

rymate1234

from the original stock rom

16:17:21

polariobearero

no ill try to get the orriginal build prop

16:17:36

Dazzozo

./proc/version

16:17:44

Dazzozo

give us some fuckin info buddy

16:17:47

polariobearero

but all the devs keep pointing on huawei g330d

16:18:03

Dazzozo

fuck the devs

16:18:26

Dazzozo

lets figure out what the device actually is first pls

16:18:32

polariobearero

ok ill try to get as much as i can

16:18:50

rymate1234

>inb4 it's another zte crescent variety

16:18:50

Dazzozo

if it is *actually* a rebranded g330d then they have reason to point at the g330d

16:19:31

Dazzozo

but you would have a report of cm working already if that was the case
